Russell Wilson vs Colin Kaepernick? Who is going to be/is the better player?

I registered here just so I can ask the question. I really want some more insight on what people think the future is for these two young quarterbacks, who the better player is, who the better player is going to be, and who the better prospect is etc.

Seriously, I think it is an interesting comparison. Both have similar skillsets actually. Wilson has shown more on an NFL field, so far. Kaerpernick probably has the advantage athletically but both are very good athletically.

I am not asking to compare Kaepernick to Daunte Culpepper or anything silly like that.

9ers fans aren't even being homers going with their guy here. Russell's just so utterly and completely mediocre. Now Kaep will need to bulk up to avoid getting broken in half, but when healthy he'll be vastly superior to Russell, and not just because he can get a pass past the LOS without having to rollout.

This, Russell Wilson is the definition of mediocre now that we don't have Alex Smith anymore.

I make no bones about the fact that they try to minimize his impact on the game. He's set to have the fewest attempts for any 16 game starter.

Wilson is playing well and infinitely better in the same role than Mark Sanchez ever has for the Jets. I know Sanchez sucks ass, but this Seahawk team is not miles and miles better than the Jets team that went to the AFCCG in 2009 and 2010.

If he stays at this level and fails to progress (which is ENTIRELY possible) then yeah. There's a lot to build on with him, though. When/if he understands his protections and where throwing lanes will open up, I think you'll see the intermediate passing game open up more (and I have faith that it'll happen, because it happened for him at NC State and Wisconsin - he knows how to overcome his height deficiency by throwing from different/awkward release platforms, so once he understands his protections, I think his height almost becomes a non-issue). The intermediate game is the one thing they don't really ask him to do, justifiably.

Brilliant letting one of Scott Pioli's henchmen have his own team to ruin. One of the premier GM jobs in the NFL and it gets handed to a stupid **** who makes three facepalm moves for every good one. Awesome. Just like handing a new Mercedes to a 16 year old girl who's already been in three wrecks.

Actually, he already has. Against New England, he was 16-27, 293 yards, 3 TDs, and no INTs.

Playing against New England doesn't count, it's clear Belichick is trolling the rest of the league by letting mediocre QBs look like they may become stars. I mean that's the only explanation for Mark Sanchez averaging about 300 yards per game against NE. No team could unintentionally be that bad
